A well-known example repository demonstrating a production-style RESTful blog API built with Go's Gin framework, GORM, MySQL, Redis, and JWT authentication. It serves as a reference/tutorial project showing real-world project structure, middleware, Swagger docs, and common backend patterns.

Use cases

• learn how to structure a Go Gin web project
• example of JWT authentication middleware in Gin
• reference for GORM with MySQL in a REST API
• how to add Swagger docs to a Gin API
• learn Go backend best practices with a blog API example
• example of file upload and Excel export in Go
• starting point for building a RESTful API in Go

When to choose

• you are learning Go web development with Gin and want a complete, idiomatic example
• you need a reference architecture for a small-to-medium REST API in Go
• you want to see how JWT, GORM, Redis, and Swagger fit together in one project

When to avoid

• you need a maintained production framework rather than an educational example
• you use a different stack (e.g., Python, Node.js) or a different Go framework
• you need cutting-edge Go practices, as some dependencies (e.g., jwt-go, old GORM) are dated
